Yang Huazhong also calmed down at this time, turned to Yang Huaming and said, "Third girl is about to give birth? If you have set a date to go see her, tell me and your third sister-in-law, and we will see if we can go together."
Yang Huaming said: "The baby is not expected to be born within the year, and the delivery date is supposed to be in the first month of next year, so I sent a letter last time saying that I will not come back within the year to give New Year's gifts, and I will not be able to come back to pay New Year's greetings in the first month."
"Although Xueyun is reassuring, the third girl is a young girl after all. She lives alone in Changle County and is pregnant. Sometimes she feels a little uncomfortable." Yang Huazhong continued.
"My mother-in-law's family usually doesn't have time to go to Changle County to see her. Now that she's about to give birth, it's time for our mother-in-law's family to go see her and give her some New Year's gifts."
Yang Huaming nodded, and brought some of the three girls' favorite food with them. After all, they were his own daughters.
Even if she gets married, she is still her own daughter.
Mrs. Tan spoke up again at this time, "The third child is right. You guys are going to visit the third girl in the twelfth lunar month, but I won't go."
"You guys help me send a message to the third girl, telling her to have a baby with peace of mind. After the New Year, I won't do any work. Even if you don't send it, I will crawl to Changle County to accompany her to give birth to the baby and serve her. She is in confinement.”
"Ah?" Yang Huaming was stunned, "Mom, are you exaggerating? Why did you crawl over there? How long will it take to crawl? By the time you crawl there, the child will probably be one year old, hahaha..."
Yang Huaming laughed exaggeratedly, but stopped abruptly in the middle of his laughter because he found that the joke was a bit inappropriate.
Lao Yang glared at him with a dark face, Tan also bluffed at him with a long face, and even his brothers frowned at him and shook their heads.
Yang Huaming quickly sat upright and looked serious, and explained: "Mom, I didn't mean that, I meant... Anyway, it's a great good thing that you always go to accompany the third girl. It's not too late for me to be happy. I'm sure Don’t worry, I’ll send you to your old age, I don’t want you to crawl!”
climb?
Yang Huaming couldn't help but picture that scene in his mind, and almost laughed again, so he quickly buried his head.
…
In the backyard, the women were busy in the kitchen, and the aromas of various vegetables were mixed together.
Mrs. Liu likes this kind of atmosphere. No, Xiaohua and Jiang Guiling are frying meatballs at the pot, and she is standing by with a pair of chopsticks. She calls it helping to control the saltiness, but in fact, she is just eating them, and her cheeks are almost ready. It was so full.
"It's a bit bland, you need to sprinkle some salt water."
"Well, it's okay if it's salty, but it's a bit hard. It needs to be softer."
"Ha, it's almost the same this time. Just to be on the safe side, I'll try it again, whether it's salty or soft..."
After finishing the meatballs, Ms. Liu turned her back to braising the ribs, elbows, and chicken. In such a big kitchen, everyone was busy, but she was the busiest.
While others are busy with their hands, she is busy with her mouth.
"Fourth Aunt, I'm really worried about you. If you eat like this, your stomach will be full and you won't be able to have a banquet tomorrow."
Yang Ruoqing came from the front hall with an empty jar in her arms. When she saw Mrs. Liu was as busy as a glutton, she not only shook her head and smiled bitterly.
Ms. Liu tried her best to swallow the mouthful of meat in her mouth, and then burped and said to Yang Ruoqing: "I can't help it. You have to taste the food to check the taste, right? Let them taste it, but each of them excused themselves and said they would eat it at night. I’m full and can’t eat anymore, so I have no choice but to risk my life.”
It sounds like she has a sacrificial spirit that would be like hell if she didn't go to hell. She deserves a certificate.
But Yang Ruoqing understood that Mrs. Liu was greedy and had a big appetite, so she stood here and ate openly.
"It's best to cover your mouth and nose with a handkerchief on the way back after eating, so as not to drink the cold wind. Drink a bowl of hot water before going to bed, and keep warm at night."
Yang Ruoqing gave Mrs. Liu a few words and went straight over to fill her with hot water.
Ms. Liu was holding chopsticks in her hand, her eyes were round and her mouth was wide open. Her eyes were following Yang Ruoqing's busy back and she couldn't react for a moment.
When she came to her senses, she was in ecstasy, which meant that Qing'er approved of her eating and drinking here.
Hehe, I knew that doing things for Qing'er would be beneficial.
"Qing'er, let me help you drink it."
Ms. Liu inserted her chopsticks into her waist, then rushed to Yang Ruoqing and took the hot water bottle without any explanation.
Yang Ruoqing originally wanted to do it herself, but Liu was surprisingly strong and determined, so she made up her mind to help do it.
Yang Ruoqing didn't want to cause unnecessary accidents by knocking over the hot water tank due to pushing and shoving, so she had to let Mrs. Liu fill it.
Not only did Mrs. Liu help Yang Ruoqing fill the bottle with hot water, but she also carried the can to the main room in the front yard.
On the way, he would inevitably come up to Yang Ruoqing and tell her some gossip:
"Qing'er, do you know? Your second brother and second sister-in-law almost had a fight earlier."
Yang Yongjin and Cao Bamei?
Haven't they always had a good relationship? Everything is discussed and discussed.
"Why?" She looked confused.
Mrs. Liu curled her lips and smiled mysteriously, slowed down and whispered in Yang Ruoqing's ear: "Why else? For the Li family's New Year's Day celebrations!"
"What happened to the New Year's Day ceremony?" Yang Ruoqing was even more puzzled.
The Li family's New Year's Eve gifts had been prepared for a long time, but before they could be delivered to the second brother's house, they were intercepted by a few thieves.
"Weren't the Boxing Day gifts stolen by thieves that year?" Mrs. Liu continued, "Weren't they dug out from the graveyard afterwards?"
"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Today Li Yi told your second brother that he would go home and prepare a new New Year's gift to send over. He said he didn't know when the approval document from the county government would come out, so he bought a new New Year's gift to give."
"Then what your second brother means is that there is no need to buy new ones. Since we have prepared ready-made New Year's gifts, don't waste any more money. At worst, we can wait until the approval is received before sending them over. There is no rush anyway."
"Then your second sister-in-law found out about this and was very unhappy."
"What your second sister-in-law means is that it's unlucky to have someone cut it off as part of the New Year's Eve ceremony, or to pull it out of the graveyard."
"So the two of them had a few arguments about this matter, and then everyone persuaded them to leave."
Yang Ruoqing thought about it and understood from the second sister-in-law's point of view.
Not to mention that New Year’s items are more auspicious. Even ordinary daily necessities, no one wants to use them dug out of graveyards.
This has always been a taboo, respect the taboo.
"What about the back? How's it going? Have we reached a consensus?" Yang Ruoqing asked.
Ms. Liu nodded, "Then Yongjin must give in, and anyone else would definitely have the same idea as Bamei on this matter."
"Besides, Li Yi doesn't agree with your second brother's statement and insists on going back to buy a new one and send it over."
